    take that fans who camped over night are to blame the same as touts

    cos they buy 6 sell 4 keep 2 themselves .........then people moan tickets are on ebay

    even if tickets didnt appear on ebay it would still sell out ....then you wouldnt have any choice ..you wont be going to the gig full stop

    so there is nothing wrong with tickets on ebay at least you have the choice.

    and like the last gigs at wembley they sold out but you could get tickets less than face value on ebay ...bet people didnt moan when they got a bargin

    and wembley holds 12,000 o2 arena holds 20,000+ they aint even finished building it yet so there will be loads of more tickets going on sale once its complete as they will be production seats kept back for any changes thAT need to be made

    if you are that keen to see a band then camp out for days the event. So what if people are selling them for a profit on ebay?

    I agree coz there only worth what your prepared to pay. I tried all day and got none so it looks like I'm buying off ebay, but if I didn't how else would I get some.
    Nobody mentions the 'agencies' who will get thousands of tickets then inflate the price with coach travel or a night in a hotel package. Good luck to the people, I would rather they made some cash than the 'official agencies'.

    yeh like the sun today £169 for a ticket and hotel for the night, oh and a bus too/from gig, £100+ profit easy there. Still probably cheaper than ebay

    I think the arguments against eBay touts pail in comparison to those for, so there :p

    At the end of the day it's a case of supply and demand, if people weren't willing to pay stupid money to see bands it wouldn't be a problem.

    I love music and go to 3 or 4 gigs a month (paid for by eBay profits ;)). I can't understand people who pay so highly over the odds when it takes little effort to keep track of when tickets are going on sale and then getting up early and buying them, it's hardly rocket science.
